[Enrico Marocco <[e-mail]>]

Folks,

this draft is an update of draft-schulzrinne-p2prg-rtc-security-00 that
should reflect the comments received during the meeting and on the list.
Diffs from previous version can be seen at
http://tools.ietf.org//rfcdiff?url1=http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-schulzrinne-p2prg-rtc-security-00.txt&url2=http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-irtf-p2prg-rtc-security-00.txt

The authors think that the draft does quite a good job at picturing the
state of the art of security in P2P realtime communications and, since
research in this field basically never ends, would like to move it
forward soon. However, if you are aware of additional works that would
be worth mentioned -- including your own work -- please feel free to
point them out.

As usual, comments are welcome.

Enrico

	Title           : Security Issues and Solutions in Peer-to-peer Systems
for Realtime Communications
	Author(s)       : H. Schulzrinne, et al.

Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks offer higher robustness against failure,
easier configuration and are generally more economical than their
client-server counterparts.  It has therefore become reasonable for
resource consuming and typically centralized applications like Voice
over IP (VoIP) and, in general, realtime communication to adapt and
exploit the benefits of P2P. Such a migration needs to address a new
set of P2P specific security problems.  This document describes some
of the known issues found in common P2P networks, analyzing the
relevance of such issues and the applicability of existing solutions
when using P2P architectures for realtime communication.
